Giveaway Sites I Like

Friday, April 2, 2010

I didn't study Spanish in school, so I was challenged when my son asked to learn the language. I wish I'd had Sing-A-Lingo and its fun approach to using music to teach Spanish when my son was younger!

En Mi Casa provides an entertaining way to teach kids Spanish through upbeat songs that incorporate everyday words. With songs from "In the Morning" to "Good Night," the music helps young children learn Spanish vocabulary for real-life activities like hand-washing, eating, and playing.

In addition to En Mi Casa, I also received samples of Say'N Stick Word Notes and Lyrics & Vocabulary Cards To Go. (These items and more are included in the Spanish-All-Day Program.) The Notes are repositionable sticky notes to label objects in the home; for example, affix one to a table to reinforce the Spanish la mesa. The Lyrics Cards are colorful laminated cards (each just larger than 3-1/2" by 5") that include the English and Spanish lyrics on one side, plus a list of about 15 related vocabulary words on the other side. For example, the card I received has the lyrics for "Are You Hungry?" and the vocabulary words are names of foods (grapes, cheese, milk, water, and so on).

Sing-A-Lingo would be fun and useful for homeschool Spanish or any family that wants to "make life a musical."

For more information, visit the Sing-A-Lingo website. The music and learning tools can be purchased through the site. En Mi Casa can also be purchased for download from Amazon.com, but please note that a lyrics sheet is included only when you purchase directly from Sing-A-Lingo.
